Thank you everyone. Everyone here is in a very special club, because we are all here to support each other. Bindersbee, you will get there, I have faith in you. My blood pressure was heading up too, but I started to take 3 multi-omega's daily. There is so much controversy over the real health benefits, but it has definitely helped relieve the stiffness in my shoulder and I suspect that it also helps with the blood pressure too.
I also eat tons of garlic, tomatoes and lots of other veggies; I can't get enough of them. I have been trying to avoid the process food traps and limit my intake of sugar-free items. Although they say sugar-free, it doesn't mean they are calorie free. I have to have two of my guilty pleasures on hand no sugar added ice-cream and low-carb pasta.
If I did not have my low-carb pasta, I would go berserk! I love to make lasagna, baked ziti, spaghetti and my personal favorite mac and cheese. I adapted my recipes to fit my diet and so far so good. If anyone want's to know my recipe for low-carb lasagna let me know. I would love to share!
GainingWeightinLA, you have come along way and you will get there, I have faith in you too. Everyone gets to the Onederland eventually, it's just staying there that is the hardest part! Everyone here is working very hard towards their goals and I am so proud of everyone. Thank you again for all the support. Hang in there baby, you have come along way!
